Got it — thanks for filling in me in.
Unfortunately, your boyfriend is starting a new part of his life at college or “varsity” which is several hours away, and that’s where he’ll be for the next several years. You have two choices: Conduct a long distance relationship or decide that the relationship which was wonderful, has run it’s course because the two of you are in different places in your life and therefore, are no longer compatible. I know that these aren’t the choices you wish you had, but the reality is that this is what’s in front of you.
It really doesn’t sound like you’re going to be able to handle a long distance relationship, and frankly, he’s 19 years old and is embarking on a new phase in his life, and I know you won’t like hearing this, although you already know it, but there’s a good chance he’ll want to play the field and see what it’s like to date women who are also in the college he’s attending.
The bigger problem here is what you’re going to do now that you’re 19 and you’re not allowed to work or attend college. You have to find something meaningful to do with your life so you’re not peering out thinking everyone else’s life is so desirable. Talk to your parents and figure out what they want for you and see if you can find a future that everyone agrees on. 😉
